Ingredients
- 8 tablespoons butter melted
- ¾ cup white sugar
- ¼ cup milk
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 ¼ cups all purpose flour
- ¼ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- ½ teaspoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- ¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 cup shredded zucchini
- ½ cup chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350° F and grease a 9x5 loaf pan with nonstick baking spray. For easy removal from the pan, line with parchment paper as well.
- In a large mixing bowl, add the melted butter and sugar and whisk until combined.
- Then add the egg, milk and vanilla and mix well.
- In a separate bowl, add the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and cinnamon and stir to combine.
- Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and stir until they are just barely incorporated. Be careful not to over-mix or the bread will be too dense.
- Next, add the shredded zucchini and chocolate chips and gently stir into the batter.
- Pour the batter into the greased pan and bake for 50-55 minutes, ,or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Allow the bread to cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Then remove it and allow to cool completely on a wire rack.
Notes
- Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3-4 days.
- Use salted or unsalted butter. If using unsalted, add a pinch of salt.
- Substitute brown sugar instead of white sugar.
- Use milk or choice or non-dairy milk such as almond milk, oat milk or soy milk.
- Make sure to measure the flour carefully using the spoon and level method.
- Use dark chocolate chips or milk chocolate.
- Add chopped walnuts or pecans if desired.
- Add ½ cup of raisins if desired.
